How much does it cost to replace a camshaft?

Well this can get expensive. According to my labor guides and using factory GM (AC Delco) parts here is as follows. New Camshaft $344.00, new lifters $1,140.00 (with Active Fuel Management) and labor runs at 22.5 hours book time. Shop labor is around $100.00 an hour labor. I would say you would be looking at roughly $4,000.00.
